Art Journal Every Day: To the one who lights up my world and warms my heart

Finally. I struggled for days on end, and here is my first entry for the month of hearts. It’s a favorite phrase that I use to refer to my honey.

I wanted to be able to create 28 pieces all of the same size and later combine them into one journal for the month of February. I guess you can say I’m getting more confident because I am no longer confining myself to a 4″ x 6″ postcard. I am venturing to an actual 8″ x 8″ layout I hope to pull together into a scrapbook.

I had my crayons here on my desk and the highlighters and vari-colored sign pens. Three shades of green for the background, and two passes of doodled letters to make the whole thing fit nicely into my heart. I hesitated before deciding I would write randomly and without direction between the letters to fill the spaces instead of leaving it as is. I like the way it came out. =)
